the newcomers - mannish boy (alternate) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was brought up in a rough neighborhood
where girls act like women and little boys act like they should
now some of the fellas used to call me a sissy
but i was gettin’ something they, they were missin’
while they were shootin’ marbles and climbin’ up and down trees
peggy and susan would be playin’ house with me

[chorus]
i’m a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
yeah, a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)

[verse 2]
i was a devil (at the age of three)
my mama used to try and talk to me
she said: “my son, there’s a whole lot of things you can be
don’t waste your life trying to impress other people
but there’s so many other things there’s to live for
i went dropped out of school, ’cause i thought i was a man
but now, at 19, there’s still so many things i don’t understand

[chorus]
i’m a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
yeah, a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)

[bridge]
i’m just a young boy
don’t be the lamb, be the tiger

[outro]
i was a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
yeah, a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
i’m just a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
yeah, a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
i’m a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
yeah, a mannish, a mannish boy (mannish, mannish boy)
